So anyone know where I can find a walk through for this game lol, a lil stuck on one part >.<

Hey hey hey are you serious? Even if you don't understand Japanese, there's no need for a walkthrough for FA. You just keep choosing the same girl at the branch point to get to the route end. There are no other route decision points after the branch point.

I've read up on this fan translation project, and it seems like the team has the vast majority of the translation done. And for that, I thank them immensely. I've been waiting for someone to do this since 2007. I would like for some distributor or publisher to translate this and bring it to the states, but unfortunately Visual Novels are unpopular here in the states (we apparently prefer FPS games with flashy graphics. I should know, I'm one of them. ).

I'm going to download the VN and utilize this translation patch. But I think I'll try it on the "demo" that is available on the site first (it does work on the demo, right?)

I have finished Erika's route without English after school sport festival. Quite easy but too boring because i can't read all of the dialog. Need comple Patch :/
By the way here the route in Japanese: http://g-seeker.net/game/h/fortunearterial.html

I decided to finally give this a go yesterday, as I had downloaded not only the full game but downloaded the English patch for it. I'll have to thank the person who is in charge of the translation work, thanks to him I'm playing (Well....I use that word lightly as you're mainly reading through walls of text. Heh, like Planescape Torment. *trollface*) the visual novel I've always wanted to try out since back at 2007. But so far......it's not what I am expecting. It's off to a very slow start and the pacing of the story is very sluggish. I'm past the part where Kohei finds out that Lori and Erika are vampires so hopefully things pick up some more. I'm also finding myself being put off by the main character, he's just too uptight and whiny. I risk being crucified by the more loyal fans of FA, but I actually like his personality in the Anime better. I just hope the story (and Kohei's attitude) gets better later in the game.

Hmmmm......maybe if there was a Decepticon incursion later in the game to make things more interesting. Or a Daedra invasion. I'm......starting to sound silly, aren't I?

Well, you need to play all routes before the true route open. The true route is where the gold is. Nearly all routes have important foreshadowing for the true route except for Kanade route, which only has an ending scene as a foreshadowing (IIRC). I'm also curious whether the team is still actively working on it. Last check Haruna and Erika has 5 scenes left. True route which is the longest is pretty much untranslated though.

1) Is this going to be fully translated soon, or everyone is playing with knowledge of Japanese?

2) Does this story has darker element mixed in (I.E G-Senjou no maou) or just a bright sunshine love story (Drac-Riot?)

3) How much does the partial patch right now cover?

Thanks!

1. It hasn't been fully translated yet, and from what I understand most of us are going by the English translation while a few can understand Japanese and played the full game.

2. So far it's a typical slice of life story you'd find in alot of Anime/Manga high school stories, or it starts out that way. Darker parts of the Vampire story start to slowly unveil as you get deeper into the story. In short, it starts out light hearted but later gets darker and more serious. If I'm wrong, please feel free to correct me anyone.

3. So far Shiro, Kiriha, and Kanade routes are fully done. Erika is only 65% done, Haruna 70% done (latest updates are that it's now 80%), the true route only 5% done, and the Omakes are 10% done. Personally I find it odd that Erika and Haruna weren't the ones done first, as they seem to be the most popular girls. Most seem to not like Kanade, she seems to be too hyper and odd balled. And it seems like the characters in the game find her annoying too (well, most of the male characters are sticks in the mud IMHO). But I think I'm the only one that actually finds her amusing and appreciates her humor, in a way she's more like a Japanese version of Peter Griffin.

How dark does it gets? Like Fate/Night, Tsukihime or G-Senjou dark (I.E tough choice and bitter sweet endings, may have deaths), or are we talking about murderous guro stuff like protagonist banging vampires while eating hearts out of classmates and chopping their limbs off?
